Nutrient Uptake of Two Semidomesticated <i>Jaltomata</i> Schltdl. Species for Their Cultivation by Ignacio Darío Flores-Sánchez, Manuel Sandoval-Villa, Ebandro Uscanga-Mortera

“…For micronutrients, <i>J. tlaxcala</i> concentrated more Fe from the vegetative stage (157.7–207.5 mg kg⁻¹ dry matter), B and Zn at 23.3–38.4 and 26.04–28.45 mg kg⁻¹ dry matter, respectively, from flowering, and Mn (108.4–232.28 mg kg⁻¹ dry matter) from fructification. The main structures of TDM accumulation by vegetative stage in <i>J. procumbens</i> were the leaf and root (vegetative and flowering), root and stem (fructification), and reproductive structures and root (harvesting); in <i>J. tlaxcala</i>, the main structures were the leaf and root (vegetative), root and leaf (flowering and fructification), and root and reproductive structures (harvesting). …”
